Send your idea into space
With twitter, blogs and Facebook, it's become an everyday affair to send your hypotheses into cyberspace. But now the NIH is offering medical researchers the opportunity to send their experiments into actual outer space. According to the press release, the government (specifically a NIH/NASA collaboration) is collecting research projects for astronauts to conduct on the international space station. How cool is that?
Here at ACP Internist, we're better at critiquing research ideas than coming up with them, so feel free to send your ideas along to us first, and we'll save you the embarrassment of hearing from NASA that they don't need any more research into whether depressed people are unhappy.
